In the south of Luoyang City, there is an ordinary house, but when it comes to this house, the surrounding neighbors are known to everyone, because they have never seen the owner of the house, and they have never even seen anyone living in the house, but this house will be lit up from time to time on some nights.

Tonight is also a night when the lights are on.

Yun Danhong and Jing Fa walked to the door of the house and knocked softly.

With a creak, the door opened in a corner, revealing a grim face.

If ordinary people saw this face and remembered the strangeness revealed by the house in the past, they would have been so frightened that they would turn their heads and run away, but Yun Danhong and the others were different, they came to this house tonight.

"We're here to buy something. Yun Danhong whispered to the man behind the door.

"We don't sell anything!" said the man, who was about to close the door, but was pushed by Jing Fa.

Yun Danhong smiled and took out a Bing Bank's certificate from his waist, stuffed it into the man's hand, and said, "This is my membership card." ”

The man picked up the evidence and looked at it carefully in the moonlight, and when he made sure that it was correct, he opened the door a little more, just in time for the next person to enter.

Yun Danhong made a gesture of thanks, and walked into the door with Jingfa.

This house is the second anomaly that Yun Danhong saw in Bing's account book before.

Auctions are held here from time to time to auction some of the most valuable items, and Bing Bank has been providing services for these auctions since a month ago.

Due to the high value of the auction items, it is not convenient for the auctioneer to carry a large amount of silver taels, so the auction stipulates that all auctioneers must deposit a certain amount of silver in Bing Money Bank before participating in the auction, and exchange it for the deposit certificate of the bank.

However, this auction is of a higher standard, and those who come to participate must have a certain amount of silver in Bing Bank, and only by virtue of the certificate can they become members and be eligible to enter the house to participate in the auction.

Therefore, in order to participate in this auction, Yun Danhong went to Yunkang to ask for a token that could be used to deposit silver in Chase Bank, and moved a large amount of silver to Bing Bank as the capital of the auction.

Although fortunately, Yun Danhong's Wangmei thirst-quenching plan was temporarily alleviated, but just in case, Yunkang immediately took measures to cash back part of the silver taels invested outside, so that the current silver deposit in the village reached more than 100,000 taels.

And the 100,000 taels of silver deposit have become the deposit certificate in Yun Danhong's hands today, so it can be said that he is also gambling on the future of Chase Money Bank this time.

Holding this 100,000 taels of storage evidence, Yun Danhong always felt that his hands were heavy, and his heart was also heavy.

As soon as they entered the house, they were led into a large room.

The room has two floors, and in the center is a square stage, around which are many cubicles of the same size, each of which is covered by a thick beaded curtain so that it is difficult to see the people seated in it.

On each side of the wall is a window with a peculiar glass that looks from the outside into like a bright mirror, and can only see one's own face. Looking from the inside out, you can see the outside clearly.

The staff led Yun Danhong and Jingfa into a cubicle on the first floor and began to introduce the auction procedures.

The square stage in the middle of the room is the place where the auction items are displayed, each auction item appears, first of all, there will be the person in charge of the auction to introduce the characteristics and the starting price, if someone is interested in participating in the auction, you can signal the staff in the compartment to quote the intended price, if the final transaction, the staff will ask the auctioneer to sign an agreement, with this agreement, Bing Money will directly transfer the corresponding silver taels from the auctioneer's account to the auction house's account, so that the transaction is completed.

The process of the auction is very simple, the staff has not introduced a few words, and then stands by the side, waiting for the official start of the auction.

At this time, Yun Danhong stood up and was about to leave the cubicle to walk around, but was immediately stopped by the staff.

"According to the regulations, guests are not allowed to leave their own compartments, otherwise the auction qualification will be automatically cancelled, and I hope this son will forgive me. ”

Yun Danhong had no choice but to nod, his expression was a little solemn, and after sitting down, he looked out through the window in a daze.

Completely different from Yun Danhong, Jing Fa was in an extremely relaxed mood at this time, and after a while, he finished knocking over a plate of melon seeds on the table, and smiled at the staff: "Do you have any melon seeds?"

Hearing this, Yun Danhong twitched the corners of his eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, we won't go around, you can help us get a few more melon seeds first, so as not to run out of time after the auction starts." ”

The staff smiled and pressed a button beside him, only to hear the sound of a wheel, and suddenly a small door opened from the wall, and a plate of brand-new melon seeds was placed in the door.

"Childe, please rest assured, we have enough melon seeds here. ”

Originally, Yun Danhong wanted to rely on this to break away from the other party, but he didn't expect that there was such a sophisticated deployment in this seemingly ordinary house, and the doubts in his heart about this auction deepened.

At this moment, I saw that the light outside the compartment suddenly dimmed.

The staff smiled lightly: "Childe, please look, the auction has begun." ”

Through the window, Yun Danhong saw a light shining down from the roof, illuminating an old man who appeared on the edge of the stage.

The old man slowly walked onto the stage, and the lights slowly moved to the center of the stage with him.

"The rule of our auctions has always been to talk nonsense, and tonight's event will start immediately, and we will invite the first lot. As soon as the old man's voice fell, he saw a pillar slowly rising from the middle of the stage.

There was a brocade box at the top of the pillar, and when the box stopped, the old man slowly opened the lid, and suddenly a brilliant light poured out of the brocade box like a swimming dragon.

As soon as the light came out, Jing Fa's eyes immediately widened, his face was full of incredulity, and he didn't even send the half-peeled melon seeds in his hand to the ground.

"What's wrong? Do you know this thing?" Looking at Jing Fa's surprised eyes, Yun Danhong asked suspiciously.

"I've seen it, of course I've seen it, this is the pearl of the dragon night, and it is said that there are no treasures in even the emperor's imperial treasure pavilion. Jing Fa said in a daze.

At this time, the old man also began to introduce: "This thing is called Jiaolong Night Pearl, the emperor in the night pearl, the only one in the world, the starting price is 100,000 taels!"

Hearing the starting price, the tea that Yun Danhong had already drunk in his mouth immediately squirted out.

He pinched the certificate worth 100,000 taels in his hand, and his head was covered with cold sweat.

At this time, Jingfa was a little puzzled, first, he didn't expect this Jiaolong Night Pearl to be so valuable, and secondly, he remembered the scene of Yangzhou Qianhualou that day, he muttered to himself: "This night pearl should be Shangzhou Thorn Shi Xu, why, is it so difficult to be an official in the imperial court now?"

"What? You said that this night pearl belongs to the history of Shangzhou Thorn?" After listening to Jing Fa's words, Yun Danhong exclaimed.

Jingfa nodded in confirmation.

Suddenly, a sneer floated on the corner of Yun Danhong's mouth, he listened to the shouts around him one after another, glanced at the staff with a serious expression, and said lightly: "Help me quote a price, one million taels!"
